Yay! I like saying America fucked up almost as much as the -2's this post will produce.

I can't believe that the popular vote came out to be in Bush's favour this time. What are you all thinking? Have you all been confused into believing that because Bush is your leader you must support him? Hell, I'm an Aussie and I don't give a flying fuck what you say about my Prime Minister John Howard. He's a daggy cunt with bushy eyebrows that have caused a rash on the inside of Bush's colin cause Jonny has his head rammed up Bush's arse.

I'm not going to bring up the war in Iraq which was a load of shit because by now everyone's made up their mind and won't listen to me, but I just wonder why you would re-elect a leader who sacrifices your liberties (for any reason). Ben Franklin once said that "They that can give up essential liberty to obtaina little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." This is America today. You have sacrificed what you hold to be America.

Australia has a shitty constitution, which I admit is nothing to the standards of America when it comes to the rights of citizens, but here we do not give in our liberties even if they aren't in writing. We have adopted "implied" liberties from our laws and shit. But USA PATRIOT act takes that away from Americans. Without the liberties that you hold dear what is America? It's just a whole big country that sits between two big arse oceans, sandwiched between Canadians and Mexicans. It's nothing. You have lost the symbolic core of America through the abolition of your rights for your safety. You are now little more than just a powerful country. You have strength and money and power, but America has lost it's soul.

If I was American, I would be a proud American, just like I'm a proud Aussie. But don't support Bush just cause he's your leader. Support the ideas of America that your president is there to uphold and defend. Something which Bush certainly has not done, taking away the rights of American citizens all in the name of "safety against terrorism".

If you are a nation willing to sacrifice your rights and liberties for a bit of safety, then by all means -2 me. If you think you should lose your liberties because you think that safety is more important then I take back all I've said. But, if you are a nation that is proud of it's values, a nation proud of it's liberties, a nation proud of the freedoms that the Bush regime has taken away in the name of safety under the aura of fear, then prove it. Do not support your president if he is a tyrant, which he is. That is in your constitution too! PATRIOT act has taken it away but fight back.


Note: This post isn't intended to be anti-American, and if you interpreted it as such then you're the kind of idiot I'm speaking out against. This is to tell you that your president is NOT America and you do not need to support him like sheep.
